A Norfolk woman won a $1.5 million jury verdict in Hampton Circuit Court last week for foot injuries she suffered when her car was rear-ended on Interstate 64 three years ago — with the size of the award surprising lawyers on both sides.

About 10 p.m. on Aug. 20, 2013, Lisa Chandler was stopped in traffic at the Settlers Landing Road exit, with construction at the Hampton Roads Bridge-Tunnel slowing things down.

After she was stopped for about a minute, her car, a 2012 Kia Forte, was struck from behind by a 2011 Honda Crosstour going 60 miles an hour. The Honda's driver, Benjamin Allen, then 19, of Newport News, never saw her, lawyers from both sides said.
